DESTROYED Gold Ring Restoration, Dog Chew Repair

[@rhiannonbrett5279]

Just so you know (perhaps someone has already commented), I think there might be a rogue stone wedged between your wooden working block and its mount. Wouldn't want that to get lost if it's actually a stone!

[@laurenceboischot4265]

I saw that and wondered if I should mention it. Glad you did.😄

[@laurac86]

I saw that too!

[@madc.8153]

Umm excuse me sir?!? The diamond has gone rogue. Sir!! You have the wrong DIAMOND!!!

[@cremebrulee4759]

I saw that, too.

[@elletaylor9985]

I saw it at 10:53

[@47ravenlord]

3:52 the random gem and hunks of gold in the crack on the lower part of the screen were probably a nice bonus find for you, lol.

[@emcarlisle6578]

I really appreciate how you mention jewelry is sentimental, so even if it’s not perfect it’s well worth the effort! Beautiful work here :)

[@kmissoni6451]

I like how it now looks more woodsy, like twigs holding up the cluster. It's a very unique piece now with a great story attached to it. So well done, you really are a master of this craft.

[@butchered2457]

This dog won, paws down. Fantastic work and I’m just happy that both dogs didn’t swallow the rings or the stones.

[@moderngoldsmith]

Paws down I think I agree

[@w15h0na5tar]

That's incredible, the ring owner must be so happy!!

[@Pandalf82]

Wow, that's expert work right here. I never thought one could save this.

[@Creepymusic782]

You know as horrible as this is, it’s both amazing that you could even restore it and a fun story to tell. The changes from the original ring is part of that story and I believe to be a beautiful thing. Amazing work, truly.

[@cookingwithsherry5570]

I am amazed you’re able to fix that. The owner must be thrilled. What a beautiful job.

[@patpeters6331]

I went back to rewatch the other ring video. This ring was in worse shape. You're definitely a miracle worker extraordinaire in the ring resurrection department.

[@alimers]

I love that you go to get a random person's take on the dog situation 😂 good stuff, love your videos

[@jbekkers11]

I love how he modelled it on his own finger, for some reason seeing such a delicate ring on a masculine hairy finger was just perfect. That gave me a good chuckle.

[@kristibunny1620]

When u first showed it I kid you not my first thought was “how the heck are only two stones missing!?!” Great job!

[@lesliemcfarland4405]

Great work and fine restoration. Keep that ring away from dog’s access! My cat once swatted at a bracelet I was wearing and pulled the clasp open, separating it from the link. Had to put it away til I could get repaired years later. After that I only wear it occasionally and keep it in a drawer for preservation. Thanks for video. 👍💕 my 🐈

[@lindajanke6194]

Bravo! Great job that must have been very satisfying. I once spent 20 hours rounding out a filigree bead that was a drop on my aunt's favorite earrings. It had a confrontation with her vacuum cleaner. I'm strictly an amateur but no jeweler thought it was worth their trouble. One can't properly appreciate what it takes to work in those tiny spaces unless you have done it. I used, among other things, a nail set to round it out. When it was finished, only I could tell one from the other. Keep up the great work!

[@peterscherff1357]

I love the melee and solder chip "lost" on the tenon of your bench pin.

[@elainechan7155]

I wanna see the customer's happy face! They must be so happy that you could fix it!

[@NathanHarrison7]

Dudes got some skills! AND patience. I hope he charged the client what that work was really worth!

[@aronk3688]

Awesome video! You never really know what you're getting into when you start a repair like that, so it's great to see someone committing and getting the job done :) I work for a big company and just yesterday I was looking at a ring that a customer is claiming "just broke" in the exact same way it was broken three months ago and they're trying to claim it as a warranty job. People don't realize that a piece of jewellery tells me the whole story and I can clearly see the ring was strongly knocked on the main setting which caused the shoulders and the under rail to shift and crack. The whole thing is just bent out of shape and every stone is loose, which doesn't just happen 😅

[@Alex_anders96]

Sir you are unbelievably gifted

[@ElainaKendal]

Wow you're a miracle worker. I have broken or bent 3 rings in my lifetime after catching my fingers on handle doors. I just binned the rings. Not that they were worth getting them restored. Great job ❤

[@dwm609]

I'm surprised all of the stones didn't fall out. Great job!

[@kimberlyhendricks1229]

Phenomenal repair job! You just preserved someone's memories. Thank you for sharing.

[@EnjoyerofYoutube]

It'd be more accurate to say that he restored an important object. They'd still have their memories regardless of whether they had the object.

[@jessicaf8917]

Phenomenal work! I’m very impressed you could actually restore it!

[@circejanuary]

those dogs have never done anything wrong in their whole life. They helped you provide great content

[@vitornogueira05]

The ring in this video is waaaaaaay worse than the other one. What beautiful restoration job you've done. The client sure was happy to see the final result!

[@lulu.chains.88]

That's very skillful, I didn't think it'd be possible to make it look that good! I'm sure that client was over the moon

[@raraavis7782]

Beautiful ring. Glad, you could save it for her! Very interesting, to watch you work, as always.

[@bernardsherry5642]

Awesome 👍 I really enjoy watching a master at work 💍

[@isadoratakagi3947]

I love your videos! You have this approach to your clients and their jewelry that is different than anything I’ve ever seen! Keep up with the good work 🤗

[@littlemizredhead]

I would cry! You made it look good as new!

[@laurenceboischot4265]

Very interesting insight into an unusual aspect of the job. It's a beautiful ring, too. They must have been so happy to get it back.

[@crazy4pugs843]

Great job! What perseverance! I think I owned this exact ring many years ago. You did an awesome job in restoring it.

[@alexandriahilbert]

Wow you did great!! I was recently proposed to with a gold ring so now I know to take gentle care of it. 😊

[@phyllismontoroula6454]

I enjoy watching you restore rings

[@Tulku]

I would love to do this work but I'm allergic to gold so... I'll just pet my cat and live vicariously as a Goldsmith through your videos.

[@lifeofhons8083]

What is the chunky clear liquid with the black brush?

[@ScottSchell-f1l]

That's one of the better jobs I've ever seen on here and fast good job my man

[@celloafterdark4173]

Turned out great! Would love a little one-line at the end of the video describing the customers reaction!

[@moderngoldsmith]

True I wish I had that! I actually posted the video before it was even delivered to them in the mail, but I heard back that she was very very happy to have her ring back :)

[@Dippedinsilver1974]

Great job! I don't think I would ever be able to repair something like that.

[@bobjones8864]

Fabulous restoration.

[@deanie3246]

Great job. Really happy to see your restoration.

[@jillianbrook1492]

What a great present to have on a Friday! Always love your videos.

[@TheGirlWithout]

Great video, fascinating to watch and so satisfying seeing the final result. You're extremely talented and I can imagine the ring owner is absolutely made up as I know I would be 👍

[@Rose8]

Absolutely stunning repair work. We'll done Sir! 👍💕

[@bridgethaessly]

Is that one of the diamonds in between the bench pin and clamp? 😂 Wow, you really do great work, looks beautiful!

[@victorlopez2620]

Beautiful job 😍

[@cathievalentine5698]

Wonderful to see you fabricate a tool for the specific job. Awesome.

[@simonvidajewelry]

Fantastic repair job 👏. Thank you for sharing 🙂

[@Noximien]

Really well done. Do you think you could've gotten the outer pathways more rounded out if you made a faintly bulbous wedge, put it in between the pathways and hammered the pathway? Or would that possibly strain the gems to breaking point? Sorry if my description is not really clear, I had to use google translate.

[@Twiggyshayz]

Great video! Can you really solder and pickle like that with the diamonds inside? Also, how do you work harden it after annealing?

[@SchwartzNicole]

beautiful job! this dog for sure seems a little more enthusiastic

[@Javier-x3x]

Hi. Great video. Quick question. I'm just starting school for this awesome career and I'm wondering? It looks like you put a lot of time (hours) into restoring the ring. Is that charged as manual hours of work + any new stones? Does the soder you use get considered in the price too? It is gold solder. It's just hard to believe that people would pay to have it restored considering all the work involved, but I see the sentimental value is worth more to the customer and gives you a good feeling of restoring it as a professional craftsman.

[@Terkenwen]

It’s so satisfying to watch when you heat up the gold ❤️

[@texasgrandma17]

Incredible, beautiful!

[@jjutbalajj8972]

I love the tool you were using, that impacts at high frequency, to set the stones. May I ask, what is this tool called, and what is name of the maker of the tool? Also, I am wondering, could this tool have been used to repair the split-shank?

[@jflclc]

Beautiful restoration!!

[@lauramacdonald158]

Beautiful ring! Now your customer can enjoy it again!

[@geniej2378]

Wow I didn't think you could restore a ring that far gone but you did an incredible job! That was very cool to watch! Ps it might be just me but your power tools sound like I'm at the dentist and it gives me weird mouth sensations

[@xanas93]

Absolutely beautiful job!

[@joonbae7267]

Do you think you could fix a bent hollow bracelet? Ive been turned down by many jewlers for a hollow 14k screwdriver bracelet thats been bent in a few places

[@tamaraadams9317]

Excellent restoration! ♥️👏🏻

[@Kira_Kitty]

Woooow! That’s incredible 👏👍🫶☺️

[@carolinabock2453]

Ahhhhh this was so cool! I would love to know how many hours it took to do something like this?

[@KellySimonsson]

Wonderful result! I did not think one could repair anything with that amount of damage! But I am glad I was wrong! :D well done ^^

[@writerspen010]

Once again, you've worked your magic! You make it seem so, mm, not easy per say, but definitely doable; watching this makes me wonder why customers like them would get turned away elsewhere, but logically I know that just speaks to your skills as a jeweler =) Jewelry is definitely sentimental, and I'm so glad you were able to save her ring! I grew up with dogs and never had problems like this.--The worst I ever experienced was a puppy who chewed on my of my flip flops while in a teething phase, but that's it. We solved the problem by giving her an old pair of sneakers nobody used anymore lol I'm sadly amused that this problem has happened to you and your customers multiple times ^.^" BTW, I know a couple of others have pointed this out, but you have a rogue diamond on your wooden work stand where you fixed the split shank. Not sure if that came from this particular ring, but just an FYI to you.

[@fibicakes5478]

Love watching your videos and what amazing talent you have. I only wish you could have shown the owner’s reaction

[@MusiqueRoumaineDeMoi]

Outstanding work. Your skills are phenomenal!

[@kaeyabedilucsbrotherpls]

8:11 Is that tray full of water or does it have some chemical in it?

[@yolandacornejo9347]

Incredible restoration!!!

[@toriam15]

Wow, fantastic job!!!!!

[@Maggiemais]

This is so satisfying to watch. Great job

[@crazy-qo8pz]

I've restored a few like this and a silver bookmark that came in the post and the dog chewed the package. I've also made a pendant from a dogs tooth

[@TheHeartofjackie]

I've been binge watching your videos. I find it so fascinating. Question: How does one become a goldsmith?

[@moderngoldsmith]

Thanks for the binge! I got into through apprenticing under a few different master jewelers. There are also jewelry schools you can go to, but that wasn’t my particular route

[@alexisasheep6554]

It's a very pretty ring

[@EricOnYouTube]

Wow, you made it look so good again :)

[@cremebrulee4759]

Beautiful work, as usual.

[@Gridlessness]

Nice Work!

[@ItsAkAr]

Does not fully spreading the diamonds as before, (the area around the circle) make the ring smaller?

[@thelittleredtina]

My pups have luckily never chewed any of the jewelry I have left sitting out, they much prefer catching flies and eating them.

[@Muunbeau]

My dog tore my birth certificate lol I was surprised cuz she never had a chew phase, lord bless her soul. I miss her

[@DanCooper404]

😮 Wait...what did you do to that poor dog???

[@Muunbeau]

@DanCooper404 wat makes u think I did anything to her? She doesn't kno the importance of a birth certificate, so y would I do anything to her?

[@takeontena]

What a cool video! Wouldn't have considered that something like that could be fixed.

[@begummm11]

Who else saw a diamond just dancing inside of dust at 3:42

[@marielmiddlebrook229]

One of my pet rats ate my husband's wedding ring. Hopefully we will one day be able to fix it!

[@johnsmalldridge6356]

Often it is more about what the customer is willing to pay rather than a jeweler’s ability to do a job. For straightening a ring that badly bent I sometimes carefully use a ring stretcher to fully round the shank. Also removing the shank would have made it easier to straighten.

[@kathywolfe6606]

Beautiful job!!

[@laurac86]

I love your videos I hope you make more soon!! Amazing work as always! 😁

[@filibertoarteaga9913]

What's up friend, a very interesting job but I would like to know the liquidation that you do to the ring is it is alcohol with which greetings

[@Shazam-sc9dl]

Boric acid

[@filibertoarteaga9913]

@@Shazam-sc9dl thank you very much

[@antrionettemcdaniel]

How much does a e stoat ion like this cost? I have a similar one damaged l want done. I just kept it in my drawer and buy rings as needed, but now I have hope.

[@lindajanke6194]

I once spent 20 hours making filigree bead round again after it did battle with my aunt's vacuum cleaner. It was a drop on her favorite pair of earrings. When I finished it was as good as new. Unfortunately, she only got to wear them a couple of months before one of her sitters stole them.

[@sandyshank6266]

Wow your so talented 😍

[@cait8480]

honestly know nothing about goldsmithing but when you set it on fire i was just like “oh, mood”

[@harvestmoon715]

Gorgeous work! 😊

[@vixxenreigns]

I should send you the wedding set of my Gran's that had the stones taken out of the engagement portion. No jeweler would reset a new diamond in it for her. They all said it couldn't be done.

[@ccme1111]

Excellent work!

[@tommy50842]

Nice job 👍

[@quBit.q3]

Awesome video, Jordan! I'm curious about your filming setup, like what camera you use and how you set up the different perspective shots?

[@hummerklein4902]

Fabulous work

[@kellyfloyd9261]

Aww..that looks beautiful!..how do we get a hold of you for some work?...please let me know

[@GiannahNoelle]

So insanely talented
